Were we John Armstrong's last club in football? I vaguely remember him leaving us as he was joining the police - did we try and get him to stay atall? Such a fine defender. Would be interesting to know the average salaries of that side compared to the current offered. The town didn't back the club at a time we all knew wouldn't last. An absolute travesty. I'm sure Chopper signed for Edinburgh United after us. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CowdenLoyal Posted January 10 Share Posted January 10 I remember him taking a humdinger of a shot straight to the head at East End Park. The collective 'OOOOOHHHHH' of the crowd was something surreal. It wiped him out but he remained conscious. Most defenders might have attempted to get out of the way of it albeit it was from fairly close range. A solid solid player and an outstanding attitude. God I miss a lot of those guys. Infact they all had unreal work ethic/will to win and had decent ability throughout. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hadn’t noticed these highlights before, before my time watching the team, that team had some fine players in it. We had some outstanding players back then. Really liked that strip too. One of my favourites. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He had agreed to go to Dundee but stepped it up a notch to make sure cowden succeeded before he left . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

onecowden Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 Very hopeful we can get a game on tomorrow. No frost in Dunfermline this morning. I assume it’s the same in Cowdenbeath. If so the forecast says we are above 0 degrees up until game time. Fingers crossed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CowdenLoyal Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 Anyone with first hand info of the park as of today? Looking at the forecast would suggest we get a game of football tomorrow! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deanburn Dave Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 I think using the word "mild" is being really generous. I would suggest "slightly above freezing" is a more realistic description. Looking forward to the game tomorrow. The BU striking options are limited but hopefully the BU's can muster up a goal or two. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mild as in temperature above 0 with a wind so cold that it will cut you in half but thankfully won’t freeze the ground. A balmy 5 degrees tomorrow at kick off tho ! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

onecowden Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 Centre half Craig Donald signed from Dundee on loan. Welcome to Central Park Craig. It’s fair to say Robbie McNab has done well there but he is much better in central midfield. Really looking forward to the rest of the season and especially next season. Matty McDonald the latest to extend his deal for another year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are getting Donald and Brechin are getting the other lad so maybe Dundee looking to step them up a level for second part of season ? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
